Comment:

 Please remember to use WikiFormatting.

 There was a similar report on IRC. The reporter noted it was working again
 quickly afterwards. I could not see the failure condition myself, as the
 tarball existed when I checked. Looks like some temporary glitch happened,
 maybe the mirror was updated at the same time?
